WWE Video: Chris Jericho Says He Is Not Returning Anytime Soon in Interview

The video featured here is an interview with rock band Fozzy, who is fronted by none other than WWE legend in the making Chris Jericho.

Jericho has been hounded by his fans since the moment he left WWE as to when he is coming back. Y2J has been coy about an actual date, but every time a new door opens for the successful entertainer the door back to WWE seems to close a little bit more.

Dancing with the stars was a great way for Jericho to become a household name with people who did not watch wrestling, and his recent announcement of a show with Metallica is not hurting anything either.

Jericho has been in Fozzy for over 12 years now, and they have released four albums, one of which had the theme song to the 2010 Royal Rumble.

With news of CM Punk taking a hiatus, Undertaker and Triple H not wrestling much and Edge's sudden retirement a few months back the WWE was in need of Jericho more than ever.

Currently the WWE is lacking established talent, but are trying to build up their young stars. Some of their wrestler's who have come aboard in recent years have already amassed big followings in other places.

Daniel Bryan and Sin Cara are the two biggest examples of WWE hiring guys who had never worked for them and yet were known the world over.

Jericho could come back and help these young guys make a name for themselves while making a boat load of money doing it, but I respect his position.

He is trying to establish himself as an all around entertainer and that is something that is hard to do. He is arguably the best author of wrestling related books in recent years, he has a band which is growing in popularity by the day, and he made it farther than anyone would have thought on DWTS.

I have always liked Chris Jericho for his passion for things outside the wrestling business, something more young wrestlers could use to gain as a habit.

Chris Jericho could choose to never wrestle another match in his life and still be a lock for the hall of fame someday, he's that good.

As a fan I hope to see him back in a WWE ring at some point, but as someone who understands that you have to follow your passion I would understand if he did not.
